david gregory is going to the big house. it's just done. no, this is so silly. come on, i know it's the day after christmas, but, i mean, look, this is a silly little diversion. he was obviously using it for a demonstration. there is no chance that this would result in a prosecution. it's a good opportunity for the washington, d.c. police to point out that it's illegal to possess those sorts of weapons in the district of columbia and i commend them for doing that. but the idea that this could lead to a prosecution is just absurd. >> so the next question, i think you probably ask your lawyers and if you went to the metropolitan police department and asked them about it, there is some suggestion that perhaps they also went to atf, as well. figure the d.c. poce gave them one story, no, you can't do that. atf said, yes, you can. does that help anything, does it make any difference at all? >> that would make a huge difference if you got conflicting advice as a representative of the press. you are certainly not going to be accused of committing a crime if a federal ag
